steamtoys 0 Posted August 19, 2007 Somewhat confused as to what to use in my trans-axle. Chart posted by UCD states in a 3 Speed Trans axle use Simplicity Multi Purpose Hyd. oil. The Operators Manual for 6200 Series says Multi- Purpose HYD/ Trans oil. I have a 3 Speed Trans-axle. My question is what are the charts telling me. Is this the same as hyd. oil - automatic transmission fluid used for a hydro trans.? I was under the impression that a gear type trans. would use a gear lube such as 80-90 weight.

UCD 14 Posted August 19, 2007 Yes it is the same. Most of the newer automotive manual transmissions and transfer cases now use ATF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steamtoys 0 Posted August 19, 2007 UCD: Thanks, I was afraid that this was a foolish question. Hated to admit that I had already added ATF!! You sure do a fine job attacking these questions Again Thanks. Ron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
